Amazon says PS3 Slim already facing supply shortages, Sony disagrees

Been holding off on that PS3 Slim pre-order, waiting for Sony to tell you that this whole PS2 backwards compatibility issue was just a big misunderstanding, and of course Sony will keep trying its best to reintroduce PS2 compatibility into the PS3? Well, you might want to rethink that strategy, cowboy, because Amazon is warning of “shortages of this product across the US.” It’s already limiting Slim sales to one per person, and has a more lax five-Slims-per-person strategy in the UK. Meanwhile, Sony in Europe is saying not to worry, since it has “trucks and trailers” of the new console already on the road . We just don’t know who to believe these days, but if you’re not prepared to wait past September 1st for a crack at the Slim, you’ve got some deciding to do.
